Long Hairstyles

So you've wanted different long hairstyles since way back in the day when your mom made you sport the pixie cut every year until you were thirteen? Well, you're in luck. Long hairstyles are very in this year for any hair type, from straight to curly and even thin to thick. When you sport long hairstyles, it's important to keep it up and looking and feeling healthy. Most importantly with long hairstyles, you have to prevent breakage which can cause fly-aways and unsightly layers that you didn't want to begin with. This process is whatever you make it; a few simple changes to your habits can make it an easy and fun process.

First step to preventing hair breakage is conditioning. When you condition your hair, try and find a strengthening shampoo and conditioner set, which many different brands offer. With long hairstyles you have to leave your conditioner on for at least 60 seconds, this way the conditioner really gets to the roots and scalp keeping your hair soft and healthy. It is also important, especially with long hair since most people with long hairstyles become so tempted to throw their hair up with a ponytail holder, that you only use holders with no metal. You can find these in the hair care section at most any store, even the dollar store!

There are many different long hairstyles for those with long hair, whether it is crimpy, curly, or stick straight. Having long hair is great, because it is very versatile and can be styled into many different ways. All different hair colors look great when they are long, because they can be formed into specific hairstyles that will complement the color. No matter what type of hair you have, you can style your long hair into many beautiful looks.

Those with long curly hair have many different options when it comes to styling their hair. While being curly is great, long hair looks great when it is straight, and this can be done with a hot iron. If you have extremely curly or frizzy hair, you may want to consider using a straightening serum or spray to reduce the look of fuzz. Another great way to wear curly hair is down, since the curls give it great body and bounce.
